I might not be joking. I've been so busy lately that I've barely taken a photograph, much less considered sitting down to create a blog posting.
Things have been crazy since "they" said I had to go back to work...We're up at 5:30, out the door at 7:00, daycare, work, daycare, dinner, bath, bed. Repeat. Whew! Throw in a little (okay, a lot!) of half-marathon training and...well, you get the picture!
Elijah is thriving at his new "school." He absolutely, positively LOVES it, and we couldn't be more happy with the way things are working out! "Miss Tammy" is the most upbeat, spunky and FUN lady to spend the day with. And she makes fabulous meals for them. I'm actually a little jealous when we drop Elijah off!
Labor Day weekend, Elijah and I went to Maine for one last hurrah before summer officially ends. We had sunny days and cool nights, and got in some great visiting time with Nana, Auntie Nancy and Uncle George. Even got one more lobster dinner out of the deal!
This past weekend, my running partner Liz and I ran the Vermont Remembers 10k on Saturday- a race to benefit the National Guard's Memorial for fallen soldiers. It was a great morning to run, and a neat event to participate in! After that, Ed, Eli and I headed up to see Tyler, who was participating in a Live Shoot with the Civil War Hemlocks in Woodbury. We got to see them shoot a cannon 3 times, which was pretty exciting! No pictures, sorry. It's hard to take photos when you're blocking your ears! We stopped for yummy creemees at the House of Pizza in Hardwick. I maintain that they have the best creemees in the world!
Sunday morning I met Liz at 6:30 for a 12-mile run. We enjoy our Sunday 'long" runs together and are pleased with our progress, I could never do this without her! Ed has been wholly supportive, taking care of Elijah every weekend so I can be out of the house for hours at a time. But none of us can wait for this half-marathon to be done with so we can all actually sleep in on a weekend morning. October 4th can't come soon enough!
We've had beautiful, sunny days ever since school started back up (figures, right?). The leaves are starting to change and it just FEELS like fall. Makes ya want to go apple picking!

Wow didn't know you were doing a half marathon!
Thanks 4 photos - Elijah looks so big!
Enjoyed catching up on you and your family. I know once school starts life gets crazy!
Glad you got a last trip in to Maine. Good luck with your training for the half marathon!
Loved the pictures of Elijah! He's a cutie!
Did Tyler tell you guys that he missed the deadline for the Leaf Peepers half? He and I are both doing the 5k...
On Sunday, TYler and I are headed to Heath Farms in Canada to go apple picking. I can't wait! A co-worker brought in fresh apple cider today. YUM-MY!
Love the pictures, as always! Hard to believe apple-picking season is among us already!!
Glad you got to spend so much time in Maine. Hopefully we'll get there next year!
Very happy that Eli is doing SO well in his new daycare!! :)
I was beginning to worry that the blog had been foresaken for facebook. I like blogs much better. Sounds like Elijah has a great thing going at his new daycare. I'm so impressed that you are training for a half marathon!
Elijah looks so grown up now!! Glad that daycare is so much fun for him!! Congrats on being able to run a half marathon!! I hear such good things about this Leaf Peeper race!! Someday, I will get there!! Glad to have your blog back!!
